Official live gate numbers will be released by the California State Athletic Commission later in the week.

Featuring a lightweight title unification match between now undisputed champ Benson Henderson and former belt-holder Jamie Varner, the main card of WEC 46 aired live on Versus.

If Harris’ reported numbers are substantiated by the CSAC, both the attendance and revenue figures would rank as the third-highest marks in company history.

The organization’s records for attendance and live gate were set at WEC 41 in June 2009. Featuring a main event between hometown hero Urijah Faber and former champion Mike Brown, WEC 41 was also held at the ARCO Arena. That event scored 13,027 attendees for a live gate of $815,415.

ARCO Arena was also host of the organization’s second-best event in relation to box-office success as WEC 34 in June 2008 drew 12,682 attendees for a live gate of $738,855.

While Harris did not indicate the amount of tickets that were issued complimentary to Sunday’s WEC 46 event, the current numbers indicate an average revenue of $54.85 per ticket issued.

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
